Blog name: my leg is not broken
Location: Milwaukee, WI
About me: I was born with Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC). A non-progressive disease that derives its name from Greek, literally meaning curved or hooked joints.

hungry?

Grocery shopping is the worst! It was always such an event in my house. I like to think that maybe I'd enjoy it if I could do it alone, but my guts says I'm kidding myself (check out my first blog which explains why I can't). Our trips were a hassle and I always felt guilty. ...
